Track 10 of 17 on *All of It Was Ours* by Boots & Bassline, released 2026-09-18. 3:15.

One more song, then one more after, before a slow walk outside.

For the friend who always wants one more song.

A song for: going out for one more song.

## Lyrics

You checked the time, then forgot it
When the chorus came around
You stayed beside me laughing
Like you hadn't meant to leave

There's a way you stop pretending
I can see it in your face

You only slow down when you mean it
I can tell by how you move
You don't have to say a thing
I don't need you to
One more song, then one more after
That's enough for me tonight

You lean in so I can hear you
Though the music isn't loud
Then you laugh at something small
And you don't look around

When the lights come up too soon
I'll walk with you outside
If you're not in a hurry
We could walk a little while

You only slow down when you mean it
I can tell by how you move
You don't have to say a thing
I don't need you to
One more song, then one more after
That's enough for me tonight

Slowing down with you
